Viewsonic VX2835WM

Moving onto the physical customization of the monitor, we find that there is nothing much on offer. The base of the VX2835WM is a solid and well constructed piece, which offers a limited degree of movement. The base also cannot be height adjusted. The only thing that is present in terms of viewing angle customization on this monitor is the normal tilt, which allows you to set the appropriate angle you need.

The VX2835WM as we have already mentioned before, has a native resolution of 1920X1200. This makes the monitor fully 1080p compliant and made the whole act of testing the monitor’s performance a real pleasure. We divided our tests into 2 different sections. In the first section we used Displaymate to gauge the color, contrast levels, sharpness and customization options. Displaymate, as our readers know is a comprehensive tool designed to test every aspect of a monitor. If there is a problem with a monitor... be rest assured Displaymate will expose it. The results we got were as follows. Please note all our tests were conducted on Windows Vista Ultimate.

The VX2835WM gave us impressive results. On the sharpness tests, the Viewsonic was spot on. The graphical and text was clear and crisp. This was apparent especially on Windows Vista, which boasts of DPI scaling. On the grayscale tests, there were no surprises. The performance was again indeed impressive, with the monitor achieving near perfect scores. The monitor did falter on the color tests. In some areas there were slight bleed-ins, which given the size of the monitor became glaringly apparent. However this problem was limited to a few older games like Oblivion. On newer games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R, the problem was conspicuous in its absence.
